La Vida Luka - Luxury Guesthouse

From the start this was a great choice. Paul, one of the owners, was quick to respond to my questions and very pleasant. Upon arrival we were warmly greeted by Irma, the other owner, and Paul’s wife and Paul. Our rooms were down a flight of stairs but Paul was quick to make sure our bags were taken to our rooms. On our way down we got our first glimpse of the beautiful and impeccably manicured French style garden and pool ! Outside of each room were a table and chairs for a pleasant place to have morning coffee or just sit and enjoy the garden. Our rooms were tastefully appointed with great extras like a coffee maker, biscotti, and some toiletries. The beds were very comfortable. We were greeted by the house mascots, two adorable and sweet cocker spaniels ! The third member of the family (a senior dachshund) we got to meet later (I have a soft spot for him as I am a dachshund owner). Breakfast is available on request for an additional fee (it was well worth it). Now a word about the hosts…they know how to greet and treat people ! I cannot ever remember having hosts that were so accommodating, pleasant, easy going and charming ! I felt as though I was leaving old friends when I departed after only two nights. I would highly recommend La Vida Luka to anyone traveling to Pretoria ! You won’t be disappointed. Please note: credit cards are not accepted !
